“No carrots, please” is what Kou Uraki tells the server in a cafeteria scene from Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory. He asks for his meal without carrots and gets a plate piled with them. The original line is 「ニンジン、いらないよ」, translated here by Gundam-World.
Why does this small joke stick?
Kou is a Federation test pilot with a keen interest in mobile suits. In the cafeteria, he has a much smaller problem. He asks the server to leave out one ingredient. The plate he gets tells you how well that went.

Finding the line in Japanese
You may see it written as 「ニンジンいらないよ」 without a comma. Search for it with Kou’s name or “0083.” If you are new to the OVA, episode 1 at Torrington Base introduces him in the context of his day job.
Kou’s Gundam GP01 kit
Look for the RG 1/144 Gundam GP01 Zephyranthes. The Full Burnern has a similar product name and a different configuration for space use.
